Sade Bagnerise, mother of two of Ne-Yo's kids, has called out her ex for allegedly exposing their kids to his polygamous lifestyle.

The singer, born Shaffer Chimere Smith, is currently with four different women, according to a report in Hot New Hip Hop. However, Bagnerise took to her Instagram stories and, addressing Ne-Yo, commented:

"Keep that sh*t away from my kids."

Ne-Yo welcomed his first child in 2010, and in the years since then, has welcomed six more kids with three women. With actress, author, and philanthropist Monyetta Shaw, he shares daughter Madison and son Mason. He shares two sons and a daughter, Shaffer, Roman, and Isabella, with Crystal Renay. Ne-Yo shares sons Braiden and Brixton with Sade Bagnerise.


Ne-Yo's former partner calls him out on masquerading his open relationship as polyamory

Just this week, Sade Bagnerise took to Instagram to voice her concerns about her former partner's behavior. As part of a long post, she said:

"You hellllllla fkn weird for that. @neyo. But I'm glad u think im playing with u after i done already warned you im not playing about my kids."

She didn't stop there, as she then went on to claim that Ne-Yo isn't in a polyamorous relationship like he thinks he is. Instead, she called it an "open one" in her post. She stated:

"Stop disrespecting POLY. There is NOTHING exclusive about what u got going on. Weirdo. Keep that sh*t away from my kids."

Sade's comments come on the heels of the performer debuting his fourth girlfriend just last week, a dancer named Bri. He also shares a relationship with Bella, Phoenix Feather, and Arielle Hill.

Ne-Yo has been vocal about his support for polyamory. According to Hot New Hip Hop, in a past interview with TMZ, he shared his personal views of the same:

“You should let people do whatever the hell they want to do. I don’t recommend anything to anybody — what works for me might not work for you."

As for what kind of woman he wants, he added:

"No specific cap, it just depends on who I vibe with and who vibes with me. As many as you can afford, that's how it works."

At the time of writing, Ne-Yo has yet to respond to his former partner's comments.
